Type your Google Login Name and Password into the box on the right. 4. The next page will show you the number of new messages in your Inbox. 5. The inbox is where all of your incoming messages are stored. Click on the subject of the message to open and read it. We will go into more detail regarding Receiving and Reading messages in a later section. Composing and Sending Messages To create a new message, click the Compose button on the top left side of the screen. The compose screen is a blank message form featuring the following at the top: From: is your address, or the address sending the . To: is where you type the address of the person(s) to whom you wish to send the . Subject: is a brief summary of the subject of your message. It is important to include a subject line because it will benefit the recipient by allowing them to see what your is about before they open it. It is especially helpful if you are sending to someone who might not 11

12 recognize your address. This will help indicate to them that the is not spam or junk . Add CC / Add BCC: To add secondary addresses to your , click on these links and additional boxes will appear. Add CC: CC stands for "carbon copy." This box allows you to "copy" a person on an that you are sending to someone else. The person who s address is in the To: box will be able to see the address of anyone who is CC d. Add BCC: This is for "blind carbon copies." If you send a copy of an to someone by putting their address here, the recipients in the To: and CC: boxes will not be able to see that person's address. You can enter multiple recipients in all three address boxes. Separate the addresses with a comma and a space. Example: The box where you actually type your message is easy to spot because it's the largest one in the window. Click inside to start typing. If you want to change the appearance of your text, you can use the formatting toolbar at the top of the box. The formatting options are similar to those used in Microsoft Word. Once you have completed your message, send it by clicking on the Send button at the bottom of the window. IMPORTANT: You cannot cancel a message once you have sent it, so make sure you want to send the message before you click Send. By default, Gmail saves the messages you send in your Sent Mail folder so you have a record of what you sent and when. You can find your Sent Mail folder in the sidebar on the left side of the page. Attaching a file to your message You can attach files to your messages. This feature allows you to send pictures, documents and even sounds. To attach a file, first you need to do the same things you do to compose a message. 1. Click on Compose. 2. Type the address 12

13 3. Type the subject 4. Type the message When you finish typing your message, click on the Attach a file link directly below the Subject box. This opens the Attachment window: 1. Click on the down arrow of the "Look in:" drop-down menu to find the file on your computer. Click on the file you wish to attach and click Open. If you have more files to attach, repeat these steps before moving on to step #2. 2. Gmail will automatically attach the files to your message. This may take a little time, depending on the size of your file. Once the file is attached, you'll see the name and size displayed underneath the Subject box. Click Send to send the message. Receiving and Reading Messages As we went over earlier, when you log into Gmail, the number of new or unread messages is indicated in parentheses next to the word Inbox in the left-hand navigation column. By default, messages are viewed in the Inbox. New messages are in bold font. To view your message, click on the subject to open it. 13

14 Once you have read your message, you have several options. Replying to the message: Selecting this option will include the original message at the bottom of the and automatically address the message to the person who sent it to you. You can then add text to the existing message and delete portions of the original text if you wish before sending your reply to the original sender (kind of like replying to a letter and including the original letter in your new envelope). Click on the Reply button to reply only to the sender. Or click on the arrow on the Reply button and select Reply to all if you prefer to send the message to all recipients of the original message. Forwarding the Message: This feature copies the message you are viewing for delivery to another address. You can't see the original message but you can add text at the beginning of the message before sending it. Deleting a Message: When you click on this option, the message you are viewing is moved to the Trash folder. Gmail does not automatically delete messages in the Trash folder right away, so you must enter the trash folder by clicking on it in the left navigation bar, select messages you wish to delete, and then click the Delete Forever button in order to delete messages permanently. Assigning Labels: You have the ability to organize your with labels. Several of these labels have already been created for you. To create labels of your own, click the Labels button at the top of the Inbox, then click Manage Labels. You can create as many labels as you want and assign colors to each individual label. Change colors by selecting the small square to the left of the label in the Inbox view. This allows you to color code your messages and view them by each label category. Moving Messages: Messages can be moved to folders by selecting them in the Inbox, and selecting a location using the Move To menu. 14

15 Receiving an attachment: When you receive a message with an attachment, a paper clip appears next to the subject of the message in your inbox. Click on the subject of the message to open the . At the bottom of the message, you will see a box that lists the attachments. This has a MS Word document attached to it called Sample.doc. If you click on the Download link, Gmail will download the attachment to your computer. A box will pop up and ask you if you would like to open the file, or if you would like to save it to a disk: To open the file, select Open With, and then click the OK button, and the program that runs this type of file (such as Word) will open the attached file. To save the file to your computer, select Save File. If you choose this option, you won't get to see the contents of the file first. IMPORTANT: Never open an attachment if you don't know the person who sent it. This is the most common way computer viruses are sent. Do not open a file that ends in.exe unless you already know what it is and why you're receiving it. If you think any attachment even from someone you know looks suspicious, do not open it.
